Francesca found time management to be the most difficult and challenging aspect of recreating a trailer. Her group spent too long deciding what to film and where, which resulted in rushed filming and limited editing time. To improve, Francesca will focus on better time management when working in groups, such as splitting tasks, and staying on top of workloads for individual projects. This will help prevent rushing and allow for higher quality work.

Over the last decade, the frequencies of bushfires have become more prevalent. According to a research published in Royal Society Open Science, there had been an increase of 40% in bushfire frequency during the summer, which is believed to indicate an alarming shift in the climate.
Developing e-learning is more expensive than preparing classroom materials and training the trainers,
especially if multimedia or highly interactive methods are used. However, delivery costs for e-learning
(including costs of web servers and technical support) are considerably lower than those for classroom
facilities, instructor time, participants’ travel and job time lost to attend classroom sessions.

In Odoo, the multi-company feature allows you to manage multiple companies within a single Odoo database instance. Each company can have its own configurations while still sharing common resources such as products, customers, and suppliers.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
2. What did you find difficult/challenging?
What are you going to do to prepare and
overcome these challenges?
Time management, for me, was the most difficult. This was because
my group spent a long time trying to figure out what we wanted
to film from the trailer and where, which meant we didn’t have
enough time to film the segments to the best of our ability as we
were rushed due to the lack of time management. This also
meant we weren’t able to get any pick-up shots that were
needed and the editing time could have been longer, affecting
our overall final product. This year, I will make sure that my time
management skills are improved by splitting tasks between
group members when working in a group and keeping on top of
the work load when working individually. This, I hope will
improve my overall standard of work as this will mean I won’t
need to rush any piece of work.
3. Thinking specifically about your trailer, what
surprised you about the process of shooting
and editing a trailer?
The fast-paced editing and the precise length of
the clips. My trailer in particular – Paranormal
Activity: The Marked Ones, was particularly
fast paced in the first few seconds, meaning
my editing had to be precise in order to match
up the clips from the original and my own. The
editing stage of the project was lengthy,
meaning I had to persevere with challenges of
the clips not being the same length, some
being 0.1 second too long or vice versa.
4. What did you learn and how do you plan on
using this knowledge for the creation of
your own trailer?
The main thing I learnt from the trailer recreation
project was that the editing process is lengthy and
trailers need to be very precise in order to get the
main storyline across in a couple of minutes. I plan to
use this knowledge to plan my trailer better, I will
need to think about what is included in all trailers
and how much plot is given away. Due to the editing,
I will now know to spend longer than I did for the
trailer recreation on my own, as I am now aware of
the lengthy process.
5. What skills have you improved on
throughout the past year?
• Looking back at my work at the beginning of the year in September, I
believe my problem solving skills and creative thinking have improved.
This is shown in both The Hellion opening and the trailer recreation
project. Whilst filming The Hellion, we encountered problems such as
lighting issues – we needed near darkness but we were filming in the
middle of the day, which we overcame by my groups combined problem
solving skills. We conquered the issue by closing all the curtains in the
room, dimming the lights and lighting candles. This, in turn, created a
great atmosphere and mise en scene for our horror film opening, as it
really set the tone for the film and matched the codes and conventions of
horror films. As for the trailer recreation project, our group had some
differences that we needed to overcome, such as what sections of the
trailer to try and recreate and what to leave in. The way we solved this
was by filming all the bits that everyone wanted combined, and then each
person would choose what they wanted to include in their trailer, as we
were editing separately.
